People who can handle large classes and big cities, I see a lot of people who seem overwhelmed when they first got here. My graduating class in high school was nearly 800, which is a fraction of UT but I felt like I was better prepared for the experience than some people from small schools. Overall it is a great school and there is something and someone for everyone to enjoy and get along with!

The University of Texas is extremely large and the city is primariy centered around the campus and the college students so one must be fairly outgoing in order to attend such a big university. However, there are so many opportunities on campus and in Austin, that pretty much anyone can find something that interests them.
